NAVYDAVY'S SHOT OF THE WEEK!!!



".....it's gettin closer by the day now. I just wonder how this economy is going to effect our sport. Regular gas is at 3.19 now and it costs me an average 50.00 to fill up these days. Diesel is right through the roof. Doesn't look like it's gonna get any better in the foreseeable future.
This weeks shot comes from Kopellah during a heat. See ya at the races........."
